Better Off
I tried to win her
With my pen.
Whatever words I wrote
Were never right enough.
They couldn't capture her meaning,
They couldn't express the depths
Of what I was feeling.
Everything I needed her to know
Felt shallow, insignificant
When she gazed upon me.
I fear somebody like her will
Never see me.
Never feel as if I'm worth it.
These thoughts would
Destroy me,
If I didn't already believe
She was
Better off without me.
